On a more constructive note.... maybe it would be nice if the BH terminal instead considered your group and gave you a more apropriate target.. for a group of 3 mbh it would assign a full temp.. for more then that it would not allow you to get a mission.. for less it would assign something more possible.. Hopefully it would still allow you a choice between names though, scouting is half the fun of being a bounty hunter.. its nice to find a mark and then go find them on a terminal.. that would be completly removed tho..

Tanks is on a sailboat enjoying his vacation, so I'm helping out.
Please channel all reactions to this thread such that there is a focused discussion from which to pass feedback on to the Dev team.

This is absolutly game breaking. The worst idea i have ever heard of. Not only does it not make ANY sense RP wise, it doesn't make any sense game wise.
Also, look for kashyyyk to become a complete jedi safe haven now. Without the name, how are you going to hunt on kashyyk? Run around tabbing through everything till you pick up your mark?

Removal of names is kinda good since it prevents the deliberitae greifing of one particular Jedi, and eliminates the ability for Jedi to claim they're being greifed by one BH since mission is luck of the draw.
Not sure on payout removal..does this mean Jedi are now all worth the same, or you won't know how much your getting paid until you complete the mission?
And faction indicators are a must with name removal, to prevent you from accidentally hunting same faction or even guild Jedi.

This seems like a normal progression of what was posted from Fan Fest. Devs wanted to make jedi-BH 1v1. This may make things harder for Bounty Hunters, but it also makes mastering the profession worth while. I am not a BH elitist but this in no way makes hunting marks impossible. I think a nice addition would be getting the name or the alias of the jedi from the spynet-op something positive.

I'm sure there are other and better ways to accomplish this. Without breaking the BH proffession. How am I supposed to avoid hunting low level paddies now?

All ya have to do is ask Eicy. I don't think I've even seen you on the terms.
As for the topic. I do not like it the way it sounds. Not knowing my marks name? or what the job is worth?
Doesn't make sense.

My take this is a fantastic move on the following conditions:
1- Faction is displayed
2- Name is given -AFTER- mission is accepted
I think to further prevent 'griefing' they should implement the following:
3- Only show those missions where the Jedi is on-line
4- 3 Day cool-down on taking missions if more then X missions are discarded while the Jedi is online. This would prevent the BH from accepting and discarding missions over and over to find the person the want to focus on.
